What stands out

  • 45 percent zone rate: he is pitched around more than almost anyone in the sample.
  • He still put 838 balls in play out of 2,271 pitches seen.
  • The contact is not loud -- 80.8 mph average exit velocity and a .3 estimated wOBA on contact.
Reading note

Descriptive only, from a single 2025 Statcast pull (pitches_faced_2025>=300 floor, 485 of 671 batters). The contact numbers -- exit velocity and estimated wOBA on contact -- cover the batted balls only, not every pitch seen, and estimated wOBA on contact is a batted-ball model: it says nothing about walks, strikeouts, or actual results. This pull carries no swing/miss or launch-angle column, so there is no whiff rate and no barrel profile here. Not park-, role-, or opponent-adjusted, and not a prediction. League-wide ranks were computed by sorting all 485 batters in this manifest on the named field; every printed value is read verbatim.
